Re: [photran] refactoring suggestion

Hi,
some time ago somebody on this list asked for refactoring suggestions
so that he could give it as an assignment to students. I couldn't find
that email in the Photran mailing list archives, so maybe somebody can
pick this up or forward.
The following refactoring idea seems useful and easy to implement
(please let me know if it already exists):
Replace all tabs with ('x') spaces in current file / project (and
maybe also other way around). The integer x is optional.
The reason is that - as far as I know - tab formatting is a
non-standard extension in Fortran 95 (I think it has been included in
Fortran 2003). Also, tab formatting can look different (and even
messy) when you open the same file in different editors. Nonetheless,
much legacy code does have a lot of tabs.
Dear photran developers,
I also vote for this one because I have quite a lot of Compaq Visual
Fortran legacy code that include tabs that I would like to convert to
spaces.
Thanks Daniel for requesting it.
